Developing Written Argumentation Skills With an Educational Simulation Game (ESG)
In this chapter, the authors present the case of GlobalEd, a virtual educational simulation game (ESG) that focuses on the development of student written argumentation and socio-scientific literacy skills over the course of...
Hybrid and Virtual Educational Simulation Games (vESGs) for the Remote Learning Era
Virtual educational simulation games (vESGs) promote unique combinations of learning interactions and affordances to create environments with which students can engage to effectively learn about complex phenomena and processes...
Population history and ecology, in addition to climate, influence human stature and body proportions.
Worldwide variation in human stature and limb proportions is widely accepted to reflect thermal adaptation, but the contribution of population history to this variation is unknown. Furthermore, stature and relative lower limb...

Evolution of Lactase Persistence
The emergence of the capacity to digest milk in some populations represents a landmark in human evolution, linking genetic change with a component of niche construction, namely dairying. Alleles promoting continued activity of...

Defining and Designing Responsive Online Professional Development (ROPD)
Teacher professional development programs typically do not meet teachers' ongoing, long-term needs that arise. In this chapter, the authors forward a systematic framework called responsive online professional development (ROPD)...
Enhancing Student Affect From Multi-Classroom Simulation Games via Teacher Professional Development
Educational simulations often require players to maintain a high degree of engagement for play in the simulation to continue. Student motivation and engagement is tied to affective factors, such as interest and self-efficacy. As...
Ancient origins of low lean mass among South Asians and implications for modern type 2 diabetes susceptibility
Abstract: Living South Asians have low lean tissue mass relative to height, which contributes to their elevated type 2 diabetes susceptibility, particularly when accompanied by obesity. While ongoing lifestyle transitions...
